Mystic Rose Rose Poet Free verse

If Only Wishes Were Fishes

In realms where wishes 
               and fishes 
live underwater like 
              camels hoping for water 
   not sand....

lives a dream 
           that has never been 
                              reviewed  
Like a window that is  jammed,
 this one has  never been 
              un-latched !
